Parmesan Crusted Fish with Lemon Dill Sauce
Pin
When Kenya was around 10 months old, I started placing tiny pieces of fish on his highchair tray for him to pick up and eat on his own. Now that Chloe is around the same age, I do it with her as well. And like her older brother, Chloe is a fish fanatic.
Fish is an important source of protein and a variety of nutrients for kids, like B vitamins and Omega 3’s, but there are many children who just plain ol’ resist eating it. This recipe is for those parents whose little ones put up a fight on fish night. As soon as your kids take a bite of this Parmesan Crusted Fish, I bet they’ll change their tune. I even added a delicious Lemon and Dill Dipping Sauce to get them more involved with the dish and add to the fun factor of eating it. You never know, your kids may be requesting fish after this!
Lemon & Dill Dipping Sauce
1/2 Cup Plain Yogurt
Juice of 1/2 a Lemon
2 Tsp Fresh Dill or 1 Tsp Dried Dill
Pinch of Salt
1. Place all the ingredients in a bowl and stir to combine.
2. Serve.
